I love The Lodge! I especially love the salads! The only thing I would like to see changed is the bowl the salads are served in. They tip so easily when I'm trying to cut up the vegetables and chicken! Please use a different bowl like a more flat pasta bowl. The service is ALWAYS GOOD at The Lodge!
I came here for a quick lunch with a coworker. Service was friendly and quick without feeling like we were actively being rushed. I tried the caramelized onion dip and the OG wrap with broasted chicken. I really liked the wrap! The onion dip was good, but I think I'd probably pass next time (I'm learning I'm a bit of an onion dip snob...). I'll definitely come back in the future!
Definitely go for the broasted chicken and the spicy chicken chillies soup. We had the whole chicken, burger, and onion dip. It was all amazingly delicious. The place is great and the service was even better.
FABULOUS food! Wonderful service! We did have to wait a bit for a table however that was expected as we were there on a Sunday evening at dinner time. We ordered drinks and went outside to watch the live music until our table was ready. I can't wait to go back! I have been thinking about the delicious chicken sandwich since we visited almost a month ago. We will be back very soon!
Oh my. First of all, I roll in at about 2:30 on a Monday and the place is busy. Good sign! I'd heard about the deviled eggs. I went with the "traditional" and was transported back to my Momma's deviled eggs. Divine. I love fried pickles and so "had" to try those. Lightly breaded so that won points and the pickles themselves? . Ate them cold the next day, still good. I got traditional chicken tenders, cause chicken is kind of their thing. Also benefited by a light breading. But let me tell you...if you love garlic, get the spicy garlic sauce and an extra to take home and put on anything else. If you like garlic, get the spicy garlic sauce. If you don't like garlic, try it anyway. Transport to heaven. The place reflects the Lodge theme, but is not overdone. The service was awesome. Absolutely no regrets at all except that I didn't come here sooner!
